The Whole Farm Planning & Mentoring program
The event
Are you looking to start a farm? Do you have plans to begin selling a food product? Are you a couple years into operating your farm or food business and could benefit from refining your business plan? Join a small cohort of beginning farmers to learn from topic experts and get paired with a farm mentor for the series.
The Whole Farm Planning & Mentoring program is a 10-week series that leads 15 beginning farmers and food entrepreneurs through the process of planning their business. Through weekly webinars with topic experts and one-on-one meetings with mentors, participants will learn the key components of starting a business with the goal of creating a new or refined business plan.
Tuesdays, January 23 – March 26, 6:30 – 8 p.m. on Zoom
The series in-person opening session will be held (in Athens) Saturday January 20. The in-person closer will be held on Saturday March 30. All Tuesday sessions are held on Zoom.
